kiernan shipka. she/her. female. ✧ ALINA BYRKE is now boarding the poseidon's odyssey! some say the TWENTY-FIVE year old is -FUN-LOVING and -LOYAL, but they're also known to be -STUBBORN and -MEDDLESOME. it could be because SHE RECENTLY RECEIVED A DECENT INHERITANCE. you'll know they're around when you hear about tea time at gran’s, beach campfires and all-nighters, which isn't surprising considering their most played song is BREATHE IN, BREATHE OUT BY BLANKS. we hope you enjoy your stay!

STATISTICS
name: Alina Maria Byrke.
age: twenty-five.
pronouns: she/her.
date of birth: march 9th 1997
occupation: cashier
BIOGRAPHY
Alina was born and raised in the south of England. She was raised by just her mother, because her father left before she was born and went complete no contact with them. She also has an older sibling.
Alina has a strained relationship with her mother. They could never qutie get along and her mother very clearly favoured her sibling, which in turn also created friction between her and her sibling as they got older. Her sibling and her were closer as kids, but with the age difference never really considered close.
When she was 11 her father reached out to try and form a kind of relationship with Alina, letting her come over every now and then and introducing her to his new family. They got along pretty well, despite the situation, but eventually her father broke contact again quite abruptly, which impacted Alina a lot.
She liked to rebel against her mother during her youth and cause her as much of a headache as she could. Anything to step out of the perfect daughter her mother wished she could be, or anything to not be like her sibling.
She has always been really close to her (maternal) grandmother. She would visit her often and she had a lot of respect for her. Her grandmother was the only person who could really keep her in check, though she wasn't particularly strict. Whenever there was trouble at home, her grandmother was who she'd turn to and even after she moved out it was always her grandmother she would go to in time of need.
She moved out of her parental home as soon as she finished secondary school. Initially into uni housing, but she ended up moving in with her boyfriend at the time after. During that time she dropped out of uni and after the break up she moved into a flat with a flatmate.
She used to go on cruises regularly with her grandmother. That was their thing. It was mostly her grandmother who enjoyed the cruises, Alina mostly just went to spend time together and have an opportunity to travel.
PRESENT DAY
Alina recently lost her grandmother. Her grandmother left her essentially everything she owned, which turned out to be a lot more than any family members were aware off, seeing as she lived quite humbly. Her grandmother made a request in her will that she use at least part of it to go on at least one more cruise in her name, which is why Alina's on the poseidon's odyssey.
She still enjoys sometimes doing what she is not supposed to do. She loves going out with her friends, hanging out on the beach or in town. While on the odyssey you can find her exploring just about anywhere looking for a good time and good people. Her personal favourites are the arcade and the outdoor pool.

✶ biography
-born and raised in san francisco, california until he moved to south korea at the age of 21. he grew up as an only child with a single mother that never truly took care of him and her sister who practically raised him whenever his mother would go out doing who knows what.
-he grew up doing everything and anything to get his mother's love and attention but it was never enough and so, his heart slowly turns cold like the winter breeze in december. he grew not being able to talk about his emotions well, causing him to be an avoidant person which he knows is a problem.
-luckily for him, he was an academic weapon all throughout school but he was never truly invested in any of the subjects. his love for food outshined everything as it was the only consistent thing that his mother would give him; pizza that she would pick up at a local pizzeria the way he sees it is that it was her way of telling him that she loves him which is what gave him a shimmer of hope he had left for the two of them.
-he hardly had contact with his mother as the only time she would reach out was for his birthday or to give updates on her health. he wishes that she would call him more often or that he could but he doesn't think there's enough room in his heart for potential disappointment or rejection so he decides against it.
-after pursuing a degree in culinary arts and working multiple jobs as different genres of cooks, he manages to take off into fame after appearing as a contestant on "master chef" and winning the title. he now owns a handful of restaurant chains that are scattered from korea, california and new york. he focuses on traditional korean food with a slight twist.
-after hearing about her son's success, she begins to call and text him more frequently, asking if he'd move back in with her and provide for her like a good son that he is. hearing these things overwhelmed him as he resents her for not being the parent figure that he wanted so badly. he decides to board the odyssey as a way to escape from her and from reality.
